Butembo wakes up under heavy weapon detonations! Several dead, including two Casques bleus killed!

Posted in Vie Nationale By BLO On décembre 19, 2016

The Bubolese who were preparing to protest peacefully awoke early in the morning under the well-fed detonations with heavy and light weapon

Everything would have started towards Furu, north of the city. At the same time, the neighborhoods of Bel Air, in particular around the prison of Kangwangura, and Rughenda were attacked. The most impressive would be the attack of the residence of the mayor of Ville, the most kabbalist man of Butembo whom the assailants wanted to capture. At the same time, Musyenene was informed that the residence of Kabila at 16 km from Butembo would have been taken by assault by men not otherwise identified.

At the moment, the situation is still very tense. Our correspondent on the spot speaks of four civilians killed, one of whom is a May Taximen, two police officers, including the commander of the traffic police Mr Elomba Libana, 7 FARDC soldiers, 2 UN soldiers (killed by the FARDC ) During negotiations between peacekeepers and militiamen. A rocket would have fallen on a dwelling in the Maman Musayi neighborhood. At the moment we were sleeping, our correspondent told us that the soldiers of the Monusco had just evacuated the two bodies of the blue helmets with several wounded from the primary school of Kamusonge to the edge of their helicopter.
The attacks continue. Everything is still confused. Benilubero on line follows the situation closely and informs you of the evolution of the situation. We regret not being able to illustrate this flash with images and videos. This option was blocked by the plan.

« It is thus understood the grave danger of any extension to the power of Joseph Kabila. Congolese worthy of the name must reject any form of transition. Indeed, given what is happening in Kivu- Ituri, any transition beyond December 2016 would allow time and resources to the Congolese government which is, obviously, an accomplice of the Rwandan occupation of Kivu-Ituri in progress « (Father Vincent Machozi, March 19, 2016, speech that earned his murder the next day)
